CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports the Bucs are trying to trade LeGarrette Blount after re-signing him to a one-year, $1.75 million contract on Saturday.
La Canfora thinks Blount could bring the Bucs a mid-round pick, and "some have suggested a fifth-round pick." Blount doesn't have a role in Tampa Bay's offense, and that was blatantly clear last season. La Canfora mentions the Lions as a possible trade partner. Detroit is looking for a scat back, not another plodder. We could see maybe the Cowboys, Chargers, Rams, Titans, and Chiefs being interested.

Get on the yearly Buc carousel. Start off trash. Look better by mid season. Win 2-3 games at the end of the season. Get the 7th pick. Have what most fans consider a great draft and free agency. Start off trash again. Rinse and repeat

I know I've been very critical of Blount but he was criminally underused last season. We could use him soaking up hits instead of Martin and wearing out some defenses behind Nicks and Joseph

more like criminally Overused. If he got one carry that's overused, can't stand to see us give him the ball anytime, it goes nowhere, every time. I would take any other running back, back there to take some carries away from Martin, we don't need Blount for that

It really would be. Dom has had some success in trading clunkers for cash, though.

2009: Traded TE Alex Smith to the Pats for a 5th rounder - he didn't make it past final cuts
2012: Traded DT Brian Price to Chicago and TE Kellen Winslow Jr. to the Seahawks for 7th rounders - neither made it past final cuts

Getting anything in return for Blount would be a steal, IMO._________________
